Nice Razyx! Really good alternative if that can be implemented.
The idea behind my height differences was to give players an idea of how flat or hilly a circuit would be, testing their cars under different circumstances.
Your idea is a great addition to the testtrack screen!
I used AIW data (driving line for AI cars) from an rFactor track mod and plotted the 3d driving line in MATLAB. From there I built the track as close as possible to that. So it should be somewhat accurate although the corner radii seem to be a bit too small at some locations.
Anyone noticed how hard it is to get below 8 minutes?
Seat and Renault both have 2.0L turbocharged cars that can crack it.
I used a 400hp mid-engined car with some downforce and sport tyres and stil got barely below 8’30’’.

This is mostly down to the simulation, rather than the track itself.
Small things like the AI being rather “timid” around some of the high speed corners, and the fact that the AI takes corners at a constant speed has a massive effect at the end of the long lap.
Gave it a whack with ‘Sport’ SUV (well, as close as one could get with current body styles). It was nothing outrageous either. However, I’d say it did pretty decently @ 8 min 46 sec.

The Audie RA8 Extreme has 730 hp and a top speed of 378.6 Km.Aus safety of cars was reduced to that speed , although a much higher top speed would be possible . The car was produced from February 2010 for a period of time . After 1500 global Exenplare production in late 2012 was eingestellt.Der sales figure stood at 650,000 euros .
Please fix the coding or the map, after the 1st sector the car model drives off-track with an offset to the right (from your perspective) untill the main straight has been completed for about 30%.
Go to my documents/Automation/Tracks and put (or unzip) the track folder there.
If you do not find Tracks folder, create one with that name. So, for the green hell you should have something like documents/Automation/Tracks/Green Hell and inside at least two files, a png and a .lua file.
Run automation, and in the lap test mode, you will find a drop down menu where you can select custom tracks that have been previously downloaded and placed in the previous described folder (see above).
If you’re already running automation when you place the custom track in the folder, close and re-open automation so the new custom track appears in the list.
